Went up to the old hotel site for a couple hours this morning.. I've gone over the areas that hasn't been disturbed by bulldozer several times... so this time up I dug every remaining target regardless of VDI. 10 minutes into the hunt, I get a 31-35+ vdi at 6 inches... dug the hole and out popped a small gold ring 14K... Odd again the ring was meant for an infant.. or an extremely small handed woman.. Regardless... a pleasant find.

GOLD!!! whoo hoo lol :happydance01: <: :clapping: :cheering: and some of this too :beerbuddy: Nice score and it looks like a signet ring. Just not initialed or engraved in some manor. I bet you did one of these :shocked04: when you saw gold. Great find Scott! That place is one great find for you! thumbsup01
 
I keep telling myself I should dig more of those lower VDI # just outside of the nickle range!! Congrats on the GOLD!!
 
Yeh, I do too... normally at parks I won't just because there is soooooo many of them.. but in certain situations, such as this place... I pretty much have been digging everything... I started with the ez , obvious targets, then work it again and go slower, and pulling more ... then finally sweep up anything in the (+) VDI's
 
Awesome catskillcomics! :clapping:

I've dug a few silver rings this year that were definitely made for a child. One ring I found just fits my almost 2 year old.

Talk about a choking hazard. :confused:
 
Very nice find, Scott! :peace: Did your eyes bug out? lol Seeing that golden color in the soil is an awesome feeling. :yes:
